With each new version, I find myself less than thrilled with the lack of accurate pre-installed stock parts databases.

I shouldn't have to check each and every mouse-click when designing simple A thru G models...

I solve that problem mostly by using balsa nose cones from BMS and SEMROC as often as possible...:D

To me, the database issue is not as important as those of rendering and placement, as I find myself entering new data for new components quite a lot. But you're right, I shouldn't have to re-enter data for parts that have been around as long as I have. Once the items have been brought up-to-date, though, it's done and I don't have to re-enter it...

The Dead Wings are toast, so I'm allowed a 'different paint scheme' design.

I played around with the textures option and came up with this look for the airframe.
I may tackle the fins later on.
